About this book. This book is about climate change and its relation to agriculture and rural livelihoods. It starts by providing a basic understanding of climate change science followed by the relation of climate change to agriculture, the impact of which is discussed based on the particular impact of climate change on plant and animal physiology.
Key aspects of this framework, as applied in this study of the impact of agricultural research on poverty, include expanded understanding of the dimensions of poverty and how to measure it; emphasis on vulnerability to natural phenomenon, market shocks and trends, and social conflict and how this shapes livelihood strategies and choices in Cited by: The Role of Agriculture in Economic Development and Poverty Reduction An Empirical and Conceptual Foundation of the international agricultural research centers, that are members of the CGIAR.

Downloadable. As the goals of international agricultural research move beyond increasing food production to the broader aims of reducing poverty, both agricultural research and studies of its impact become more complex.
Yet examining the magnitude and mechanisms through which different types of agricultural research are able to help the poor is essential, not only to. Livelihoods research can help to bridge the gap between the levers on rural poverty reduction that the PRSPs set out to strengthen, and the intermediating role of district councils or assemblies in the poverty reduction process.
